You seem to not be recognizing the difference between 'supporting', 'acknowledging', and 'opposing' property rights.

I am saying that expressing an objection to a decision because of personal opinions can still allow acknowledgment of the right, but displays a lack of support of the owner to make that decision as he sees fit.

You appear to believe that anything short of an attempt to strip the rights from an owner is support. By that logic, a Jesse Jackson boycott over a perceived (or even manufactured) injustice still qualifies as support for the target's rights.

Don't agree in all cases.
